It was a sunny sunday afternoon on the 17th of september and a bunch of us decided that it was time that we visited the famous garrison island of Helsinki, Suomenlinna.

A short bus ride to the city center from Otaniemi (Campus) to Kamppi (Helsinki Main Bust Station) and then a short walk to the jetty (we passed the helsinki Church) and on to a boat to Suomenlinna was all that took us to get there, abt 1.55 euros (or 3.5 euros) depending on your status (permanent / temporary).

I just added the ultracool Meebo Me! to the blog and also to my website, however its the same widget (i.e same uid).

This takes interaction to whole new level, yahoo did a presence idicator but it would redirect the person to the yahoo web messenger and one needed to have a Y! Id to interact. This is also way cooler to the gmail talk. i can only say WoW!! Go Meebo Go!
